“go for the balcony room - it's quiet, away from the busy square, the view is amazing and the balcony is as big as the room itself - lovely to sit outside after a day of sightseeing.” (Zj439)

Feb 3, 2015

“If staying in town during the weekend, the square outside the hotel can get a bit lively. Possibly request a room on the canal side. We didn't have a problem with our room, and we were right on the square though.” (153erica)

Jan 26, 2015

“try and get a side room 503 and upwards ..or at the back ..the front rooms will be noisy” (629terrys)

I have visited Amsterdam a few times and have stayed at many NH hotels (Musica, Doelen) but Caransa is my favourite. It's prime location is perfect for me; a twenty something party girl. There are clubs to suit everyone's tastes. I stayed from the 18 Feb to 22nd Feb (for my birthday) and I cannot fault it at all. On...

I have checked many NH properties before booking Caranza, but this one has the most convinient location for those who want to be in the center of the city and also enjoy some night life in the same area. As I read in previous revisions, it can be quite noisy at night due to some night clubs nearby, but it...

Stayed here from Friday to Sunday found it brilliant little hotel,
Staff very friendly and helpful. Very good spot beside ATM, cafes, and all fast food stores. Only downfall was the view from the room was facing what look like an office felt like privacy was taking away. Room was always spotless, cleaners done a great job each day.

Central location.
Clean rooms and friendly staff.
Nice but a little small rooms.
Had a room in side street.
Wondered why there was earplugs on the bed table.
Understood first night (thursday)
A lot of noise from Rembrandt Square at night from bars etc.

We loved our stay at NH Caransa. Great central location. The room was amazing but the one problem I had was there is no lock on the bathroom door. Travelling with a friend, it would have helped. Also, I had just come from hotels with free buffet breakfast, so it would have been great not to have to pay the...

Location was good. Tram stop is in front of the hotel. Toilet is quiete small. But you can find lots of bars, coffee shops, pubs, restaurants and fast foods around the hotel. My room was clean. I couldn't open the mini bar, I think it was locked. Price level was better than any other NH hotels in Amsterdam.

Stayed here for my boyfriend's 30th. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay pleasurable. Loved the balcony room, nice breakfast. Extremely comfy beds. Very good location - halfway between Dam square and the museums.
